with Dr. James Boice
Cleansed by the Blood, Part 1
Monday, April 6, 2026
Have you ever messed up or done something you thought was unforgiveable? This week on The Bible Study Hour with Dr. James Boice, we’ll study the first half of Psalm 51, where David has done some pretty terrible things. He’s sinned against God and man, and he knows that he doesn’t deserve forgiveness. What can David’s story teach us about the mercy, love and compassion of God?

Rejoicing in Trials
"Blessed are those who are persecuted for righteousness’ sake, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven. Blessed are you when others revile you and persecute you and utter all kinds of evil against you falsely on my account. Rejoice and be glad, for your reward is great in heaven, for so they persecuted the prophets who were before you." Matthew 5:10-12
The Bible tells us that those who are persecuted are blessed, but that message is certainly contrary to the message the world believes. So how is it that Christians can rejoice in trials? In this booklet, Dr. Boice describes what it means to be persecuted for Christ, tells us how to rejoice in persecutions, and challenges us to stand up and be counted.
